Enjoy excellent local food at a New York-style diner.
An all-day dining spot inspired by New York diners, tucked away in the retro Nakazakicho area with a nostalgic Showa-era atmosphere. The open-air interior feels wonderfully immersive and spacious, as if you were traveling there yourself.
The signature dish is chicken over rice, a popular street food classic often found at food stalls and food trucks in New York. The menu also features hearty options such as poke rice, inspired by New York’s trendy marinated seafood rice bowls, and rich, flavorful rice carbonara.
With à la carte dishes such as carpaccio and fish and chips, it is a great choice not only for lunch but also for drinks. The drink selection is also extensive, with craft beer selected from around the world, original cocktails, craft gin, and more. There are also homemade sweets and carefully hand-dripped coffee, making it a convenient café option as well.
